From the
onion garden
I did go to the Jardin des Tuileries. I so did go to have a little service there, for this is the
borning day
of Charles de Valois in 1270, and the
going-away day
of Saint Grégoire in 604.
Felix Mendelssohn
did ride in my pocket to service. He did sleep most of the time, though. I did begin to sing by the two little trees I have planted, for Saint Grégoire I and Charles de Valois. I first did sing, "Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus, Dominus Deus,
Hosanna
in excelsis." While I was singing,
Brave Horatius
and
Lars Porsena of Clusium
came. They did wait while I did sing two more songs. Then I said a long prayer and a little prayer. |
